ON RESTRICTION OF ETHNIC MINORITIES RIGHTS IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURIES (AS ILLUSTRATED IN THE CASE OF RUSSIAN GERMANS)
Abstract
Today's historical studies have continued concentrating on the subject of restrictions imposed on rights of certain ethnic minorities. The scientific interest arose already in the early 20th century. The turn of the 19th and 20th centuries witnessed a myth of “German threat” to the Russian statehood emerging during an economic boom in specific regions. The myth gave birth to a number of industrial and agricultural restrictions. Russia's entering the World War I demanded that the government formulated its position on its own German population. Anti-German forces in the government and army introduced “Laws of liquidation” amid the fight against internal enemies. The article focuses on causes of the liquidation laws and methods of their implementation in various spheres of life of minorities, illustrated in the case of ethnic Germans in Russia.
